I tried to configure my connection with pwireless2, but the device, eth1, wasn't found.
With the network wizard no problem.

I prefer pwireless2 as it reconnects, in case of a lost connection, to the same access point.
With the network wizard, as I have a lot access points arond me, I did find myself connected to another (non-protected) one after a connection loss.

What can be done to get Pwireless2 working?
When started no access points are displayed and there are at least some 25 around me._________________Time savers:

No idea sorry I don't use wireless maybe look in pwireless dev thread if there's updated version or something?

I thought you wanted to know what goes wrong in your development and eventually correct it.
As I have an alternative, it's up to you to see if you want to look into a possible correction._________________Time savers:

Yeah read what I said in first post, you can post bugs but this is just a puplet and I will correct if I know enough to do so otherwise you're on your own. I've never used wireless network or pwireless tool and know nothing about how those protocols function. I know that if ipw module was in dpup it's also in kdpup and if connection worked on dpup you should have same connection as tools are same. Is that other network wizard you talk about also in kdpup?

From first post:

NOTE: This is just a puplet, it's not official release nor I plan on extending it or maintaining/further developing at the moment.
Nothing crucial in base libs/modules/configuration is changed so if dpup didn't work for you or had some bug this one won't be exception.
You can post bugs if you find them or even better if you have fix for them but don't hope that I can do something about.

The other network wizard is just the network wizard which is for a long time in all the puppies. Nothing extravagant. Just standard.
I use that one now.

Not having access to wireless I can understand it's difficult to diagnose, but me having no skills in development I don't know where and how to start.
I can do tests if instructed. I have done that.

As for the iw2100 driver, I know it's in dpup. I used dpup a lot until there was no movement anymore in the project and I still use it on occasions.

So it boils down to the regular network is seeing my internet device as eth1 with the ipw2100 driver whereas pwireless2 don't. That"s all there is._________________Time savers:

I successfully added a wine sfs and a OpenOffice sfs to my kdpup installation.
All is working ok.
Just to inform about this._________________Time savers:

dejan555,
Good job! I did a frugal install on my usb stick and gave it a try. I am very impressed with kde (I never used kde much) and how well puppy package manager works with the debian repos. I can't wait to do some customizing!

One problem though, I tried doing a frugal install on my girlfriends Dell xps m140 (which is running puppy 4.3.1 at the moment) but when booting I get:

The message comes immediately after booting from grub, before any of the normal startup messages ("loading drivers", "copying to ram", etc)

I'm not sure what the problem is. The sfs, initrd, and vmlinuz are in /kdepup on partition 3. the puppy 4.3.1 files are in / on partition 3. Do you think 4.3.1 is conflicting with kdpup? Here is a section from menu.list

I can't wait to try this one, I've been wondering if there was a puppy with KDE and what do you know, there's one on the first page of the Puppy Derivatives section

I like the fact its KDE 3.5 too..I've generally only used 4x lately and while its fairly cool.. lots of bugs and instability from what I've found. I've heard a lot of people prefer the older and faster 3.5 and it still looks pretty nice from what I can tell.

Now I'm having a new problem, trying to load xorg or xvesa results in a black screen. The laptop has a 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML chipset which works with 4.3.1. I'm not sure if there are missing drivers or something, I will do some searching.
